The House of Cortenys

Corten steel. A different presence.

Cortenys is a French house of luxury Corten steel furniture, for indoors and outdoors alike. Where the market sells sheet metal, the House designs collector’s pieces. Design as the starting point, material as the signature.

The intention
La Maison CortenysDesigned in France. Crafted in Europe.

01 / The intention

Every setting deserves the same attention.

An interior, a garden, a terrace. Places to live in as much as to look at. For them, Cortenys designs pieces with assertive lines, conceived in dialogue with architecture, light and nature. A different vision of Corten steel furniture, in which metal ceases to be a building-site material and becomes a presence.

Designed in France.

Line, proportion, purpose. Every Corten steel piece begins with a precise intention, then a drawing refined until nothing superfluous remains.

Crafted in Europe.

Made to order by a partner manufacturer. From the Corten steel sheet to the finished piece, every stage is checked: cutting, bending, welding, then the finish that gives the drawing its substance.

The Cortenys signature patina.

The shades of Corten are part of the design. Where Corten steel is often delivered bare, its patina left to the whims of the weather, our pieces leave the workshop with the Cortenys signature patina already applied.

The shades of Corten are part of the design. Where Corten steel is often delivered bare, its patina left to the whims of the weather, our pieces leave the workshop with the Cortenys signature patina already applied. A dense, controlled Corten patina from the very first day, and a story that continues in your setting.

The appearance of the Corten patina evolves with exposure and finish. Indoors, the protective varnish is required; outdoors, we help you choose the option best suited to your project and its supporting surface. Even varnished, Corten steel can still mark a light or porous floor: we recommend protecting it.

03 / The craft

Design sets the direction. The workshop gives it form.

Cutting, bending, welding, patinating. Behind the simplicity of a Corten steel line lies a sequence of precise gestures. The thickness, the welds, the patina: every detail has been rethought. Step inside the manufacture and discover what Corten steel becomes in exacting hands.

The manufacture

Where Corten steel takes its final form.

In the workshops of our partner manufacturer, at the heart of European metalworking, every plate of Corten steel is cut, bent, welded and prepared with the same exacting standard as our finished pieces. The industrial gesture remains precise, but never impersonal: the thickness, the weld, the patina, every detail has been rethought.

This is where Corten changes status: it leaves the world of the building site to become luxury furniture. Cutting, fire, signature patina, final inspection: every stage is carried out piece by piece, before Cortenys creations join the gardens, terraces and architecture for which they were ordered.
